playbook-extension

This rule checks the file extension for playbooks is either .yml or .yaml. Ansible playbooks are expressed in YAML format with minimal syntax.

The YAML syntax reference provides additional detail.

Problematic Code

This rule is triggered if Ansible playbooks do not have a file extension or use an unsupported file extension such as playbook.json or playbook.xml.

Correct Code

Save Ansible playbooks as valid YAML with the .yml or .yaml file extension.
